Same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?

My Head of Government, Mrs Merkel gave her New Years TV address (with English subtitles) and mentioned my former country.
 
My former country’s Head of Government Mrs May gave her New Year’s TV address which was a re-run of 2016 and 2017, all full of lies and meaningless nonsense. No talk of global responsibility but she did say the UK would be out in the new wide-open world, freed from the EU shackles, to rob, rape and plunder other nations in her determined effort to have her cake and eat it. In the few factual words, she did at least admit that GB has basically never had it so good while in the EU.
 
Meanwhile Mrs May was fully supported in her push to make the UK #1 in the world when her Minister for Health, Mr Hancock announced today, he was going to put newborn baby’s written records online and the changes would come as part of the government's promise of a £20.5 billion increase in funding for the NHS in England by 2023/24:

"Having a baby is one of the best moments of our lives, so I want our NHS to be the best place in the world to give birth. Today, we will take steps to ensure every expectant mother is supported - from pregnancy to birth to those critical first months of parenthood - with a comprehensive package of personalised, high-quality support."

Replacing the “Little Red Book” smacks to me as some kind of peace offering to Jeremy Corbyn and his Mao Tse-Tung philosophy. Perhaps he might yet be convinced to vote for Mrs May but only if Huawei are given the contract to write the software. I’m sure Mrs May can overcome her pride & prejudice if it means buying votes that lead to her own personal security.

Savid has suffered the consequences of crying wolf and has had to return so as to be seen to be doing nothing and thereby increase the bosses chances in the upcoming vote - or not.

WHAT IN HEAVEN’S NAME WILL TWO GUNBOATS DO TO STOP MIGRANTS TRAVELLING TO THE UK????

Going to blow them out of the water with spud-guns?

The people land on the Kent beaches and make a beeline to the nearest police station. No need to search for them. They are desperate to get arrested and be entered in the UK’s computer systems.

Meanwhile away from Unicorn land, things followed the standard pattern. At least 15 times today, the most repeated TV programme of all time in the entire world was shown on German TV and much of Europe also watched it. It is part of New Year’s tradition, indeed has absolute cult status. And I hate to tell the Brits that their sketch written in the 1920s, performed by British actors for German TV in 1963 is also a big hit in South Africa and Australia. It shows 1:1 what the Germans love(d) about the British.

I understand that for the very first time it may be shown on British TV soon. Here the full length (18 minutes with short German intro) original version – in English of course but with updated colour(wait 10 seconds).
Amended link in case above link playing up at the moment  - here Youtube shortened version in really original and poorish quality version but gives the idea.
 
And if anyone wants to know why I love Bavaria, the state that has given me a safe, sensible, tolerant home for 30 years might like to watch this 5-minute Bavarian business image film based on a simply mind-blowing 90 minute long film shown this afternoon in full length. Sadly only available on pay by view systems or purchased on DVD.
 
Same procedure as every year, James!
